A very big shock awaits many of these politicians from the SS and SE decamping from the party they were voted into power to APC.

Many of them will learn a hard way that it is the people that decides who leads them in a democracy not Tinubu's APC.

That Man Na Real Jagabandit!
He Don even shake Pope

god of politics

Emmanuel900:
What you are really afraid of is Tinubu winning Akwa Ibom and other state that may decamp to APC.

And what I will tell you is to be scared.

Without Igbo and Christians votes you will realize Peter Obi is nothing.

The small sucess Peter Obi enjoyed outside the East in places like Lagos and Plateau is because of him going from one church to the other during the last election to campaign against islamization agenda conspiracies, Tinubu have already destroyed that game for him, he only have Igbo votes Left and I will tell you even that 95% Igbo votes Tinubu already have plan to hijack more than 30%

When your so-called messiah jumped from APGA to PDP to LP, you called it democracy in action. But when other politicians do the same, you scream that democracy is under threat. Everything Obidients accuse others of, they’ve done even worse. We know you’re hurting, keep wailing as usual.

put a pastor and imam in power, they will still behave like one corrupt politicians. it does not matters

They are too insecure for political game

ScamHunter:
It's called state capture. That's how cartels roll. Slow and steady. Whether Enugu or Abia, Bauchi or Osun. It's just a matter of time. Don't forget that The Vulture is a Patient Bird.

E be like say you read a lot of James Hadley Chase novels in your youth as that was the title of one of his many fascinating books. Those were the days when we were forced to use our imaginations to imagine what an author is saying unlike the spoon feeding rubbish we see these days on social media.

Everyone will move on, some of you need to know it is not about the political party but the individual.

Once a governor defects to the APC, governance often mutates into a grotesque performance of entitlement.

The hunger to impress vanishes. Complacency creeps in like mold—quiet, stubborn, and destructive.

Innovation dies not with a shrug. Decisions that once sparked growth are replaced by ceremonial nonsense, photo-ops, and recycled rhetoric.

And now Akwa Ibom, a state that for over a decade stood as the eastern corridor’s vanguard of growth, risks being lobotomized—its strategic edge dulled by party loyalty over public service. I’m genuinely alarmed.

Thank God Enugu, Abia, and Anambra haven’t bent the knee to the center. That disalignment is a strange blessing—it keeps governors alert, uncomfortable, and thus able. Because when re-election isn't guaranteed by party machinery, performance becomes the only real currency.

We are watching..

Aniluvreal:
I am asking this question again and again, what is Umo going to APC to do? Not that this APC is performing for you to say I am going there because of how they're performing. The worst political party with the worst ideology ever.

People are saying that politics is all about interest. I am asking again, what type of interest is Umo Eno looking for now in APC?does he want to contest for presidential election, me and you knows that it's not even possible. I don't know who's deceiving this man and he believes it.

Umo Eno really betrays us Akwa Ibomites. I don't care if Tinubu wins his reelection, that's not my business. But I want Umo Eno to be taught a life lesson if he finally decamps by losing his reelection bid, which is so imminent. Everyone will work against his reelection.

How old are you?
In 2031 when Asiwaju completes his 8yrs in office power rotates back to the north and VP to d south. The VP to South will be btwn SE and SS.
And you are here talking about interest. What more interest can be bigger than this.

People change jobs on a daily just to be able to reach the pinnacle of their careers. Banking industry for example.

You see that your last sentence? That's the truth right there

without attaching desperately to the minority tribes in the SS, Igbøs will d!e

Nairaland will allow Yorubas say whatever they please but I reply a comment they ban me

I thought this man was a Man of God, so why his defecting? Is that not betrayal?

Take out Anambra. Anambra is already APC in deed but Apga in name. It's just like saying Wike is not for APC

Whiteshield:


You sit in the East but you are stretching neck to cry that a South South state is a beacon of growth in the Eastern corridor. Why can't you pick a state in your region as an example of growth?
Or progress is a taboo in the East?
Akwa Ibom isn't even in the East.

If Pdp were such a fantastic party, why did you vote them out in Abia?

You are ing LP but crying that someone decamped from Pdp. You people are not even serious.

Sometimes, I wonder how some of you here reason. The hatred for the IGBOS and anything Igbo is assuming a disturbing rate. So someone else from another state cannot express his views about another state, perhaps he derives a living from there?
What's the criteria to determine that this poster is of S'East extraction, that gives birth to this kind myopic response?
Must you come from a state,to give your views about what is happening or has happened in the region or particular state? By our spread as Nigerians, we have one-two person's as relatives living in different parts of the country, for the sake of my brother or sister or relation who lives in the region or state that is not their, I can't share my views about what is happening there? Are you alright at all.
Boko Haram, terrorists and Fulani herders are causing havock in different parts of the nation, so the states not affected by their devilish art, people in those states, can't talk about them? How do you reason?
This is the 21st century, please be reasonable in your thinking. You are too awkward in your reasoning
People of S'East extraction, clamoured for for the construction of the 2nd Niger bridge,did they do so because it was meant for them alone?. Development in any state in Nigeria,affects every Nigeria,so we have the right to comment on what affects others in their state, it's not a crime.
Grow up please.

Who else if not Godswill Akpabio, he doesn't even know who Akpabio is..
By the time he defects and he is denied automatic ticket for reelection, he will know what he has gotten himself into.
Udom knew who Akpabio was, he used long spoon anytime they had breakfast together, Umo with a false calling, with plenty baggages around him thinks he will please Akpabio when he s him in carrying broom.

He should continue..

2027, I pray Either labour or whoever pdp presents gets this pasta out.

Stop sweating, go to biafraland

When I read the nonsense from the governor, I shook my head and concluded that we have never gotten any leader except some self-serving, low self-esteem idelogyless political scavengers. May God help the masses

praxs:



They hardly reason before the talk. They couldn’t fix their own state yet bothered about fixing another state. You begin to wonder if they have followcome mental issues

It's you that doesn't reason before you talk. How do you know that the poster is an Igboman or woman?.
Why should an individual commit a crime and you find pleasure in heaping the blame on a whole tribe?
PDP governors, were performing governors before, both in the S'East and S'South. Think of the days of Peter Odili, Wike, Amaechi,Victor Attah, even GodsWill Akpabio. Udenwa was also a performing governor in his days. There's nothing wrong with PDP, as a party, but individuals who are there.
Labour Party has also produced good governors in the days of Oshiomole, Mimiko, so if Otti is doing, it's in their tradition.
So reason before you talk and don't heap the blame of someone's sin on a tribe.

The juju tinibu is using to make those governors to defect to the apc despite not performing at the federal level is really a very strong one. Those defecting are only showing nigerians how weak and c.owardly they are.

It's not ordinary the juju the apc is using to lure them is a very strong one.

You are living in the 14th century. Don't worry, let the game begin. Your postulations will become a reality, when Peter Obi positions himself in a wrong party. If he positions himself correctly politically, your body go tell scores later.

Stop sweating, go to biafraland

You suppose come collect my phone

Jobless fellow

helinues:
No mincing of words. You people are immature, intolerant for political stuffs

You guys are not interested in living while allowing others to breathe

Worry about your home state, worry about your own life. Akwa Ibom people are not complaining to you

Do you really have any other life endeavour than being on nairaland 24/7 ?
If not, please dm me I have a job for you that's well paying.

How is that your life's headache? Na your parents dey pay my bills?

Stop being petty

I just laugh seeing this thread, please which innovation are you talking about in Akwa ibom state?
It's quite obvious that those that are not from a certain state will begin to write about a place they know nothing of..
Are you talking about a state with almost hotels everywhere now and if you ask for the pay, it will shock you that most of the staff work like an elephant and eat eat like an ant.

A state that unemployment is high and most of the youth are just yes sir to the politicians just to get peanut..

I am Akwa ibomite.. And I know what I am saying

LoL... You definitely have seen the movie Blood Money

rinzaugustine:
You forgot to mention increase in crime rate anytime a party goes APC…Nigeria is a lost case which inspite of all the potentials of the country can never be redeemed but can also get worse

APC ers never talk about this.
